"Books have the same enemies as people: fire, humidity, animals, weather, and their own content."
Paul Valery
I just stumbled across this, a quote relating the adversaries that people and books may face. I don't know why i like it so much... Maybe it is the sense of reality behind it? The funny thing is that I am far from cynical, I despise cynicism ever so much however despite that and despite the humour involved this quote is very accurate.
